Meet Max Handler
On a hot summer day in 1951, Montreal homicide sergeant Max Handler gets the call he's been dreading. After four days of searching, the body of young Irene Czerniak has been found. Max's search for her killer takes him from the grim east-end streets to the glittering Sainte-Catherine strip where Sammy Davis, Jr., Frank Sinatra and Oscar Peterson played. Commissioned by editors John McFetridge and Jacques Filippi for Akashic Books' acclaimed new anthology Montreal Noir, Milk Teeth shows why Howard Shrier consistently earns rave reviews and national awards for his work.
